Thoughts


A difficult week's trading.

Markets were pretty range bound during the first part of the week. We saw a sell off after the US Fed raised rates by 25 BPS on Wednesday night, before a strong rally on Thursday, then a sell off on Friday.
Made a few very poor trades exits again this week, especially on my RR short, which dropped over 400 BPS from the early high on Friday.

Well short of my weekly 2.5% benchmark. 

Looking forward to more trading opportunities next week.



Stay disciplined.

Stay focussed.

Stay humble.
